In the Bible who is a whale of a guy?

This no doubt refers to the story of Jonah (in The Old Testament, the Book of Jonah) who tried to run away from God. He was swallowed by 'a great fish' but survived, eventually doing the errand God had prepared for him.The story of Jonah and the Whale is a well known story, but nowhere in scripture does it mention a whale but a 'Great Fish'. This is jusy another example fo the misconceptions that people have about familiar Bible stories (eg Eve never gave Adam an apple... Nowhere does it say there were three wise men at the stable... and so on!).

Who in the Bible was swallowed by a whale and lived?

Jonah...Jonah 1:17 Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.Answer:The inspired scripture doesn't say "whale." It says that God "...PREPARED A GREAT FISH to swallow up Jonah..." (Jonah 1:17).It doesn't reveal what kind of fish... or if this "special" fish is extant today as a species.Nor does it say that Jonah was alive for those three days and three nights in the fish's belly. We are only told that in the fish's belly Jonah prayed... but not for how long.Jesus gave the "sign of Jonas" as THE ONLY "proof of His Messiahship:"...An evil and adulterous generation SEEKETH AFTER A SIGN; and there shall no sign be given to it, BUT THE SIGN OF THE PROPHET JONAS: For AS Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly [again, the inspired word is 'KETOS' -- or, HUGE FISH]; SO SHALL THE SON OF MAN BE THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS IN THE HEART OF THE EARTH." (Matt.12:40)How was Jesus [after the manner of Jonah] in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights? Was He alive... or was He dead?Of course... He was "resurrected" from the dead... just AS Jonah was resurrected when: "...it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land." (Jonah 2:10)If Jonah was alive three days and three nights in the fish's belly... then so was Jesus alive [AS Jonah was] -- which would mean He never paid our ransom... the ONLY SIGN HE GAVE OF HIS MESSIAHSHIP FAILED... and Jesus Christ is not the Messiah.Yes, Jonah lived... but only after he was revived after three days and three nights.
